Germany - FW 190 A-0

Picture
The pre-production Fw 190 A-0 series was ordered in November 1940, a total of 28 being completed. Because they were built before the new wing design was fully tested and approved, the first nine A-0s (two prototypes and seven of the Fw 190 A-0) were fitted with the original small wings. Simultaneously with the new wing, a bigger horizontal fin was introduced.  All were armed with six 7.92 mm (.312 in) MG 17 machine guns — four synchronised weapons, two in the forward fuselage and one in each wing root, supplemented by a free-firing MG 17 in each wing, outboard of the propeller disc.
